Every day I look at this mountain and I've just always referred to it "my
mountain", but called PJ's Dave yesterday and asked him the name of it. He said
it was Fielder Mountain. I looked it up. It's 3765' and in Jackson Co with drain
basins the Rogue River and Pacific Ocean. It's highest neighbor is to the
northwest and is in Josephine Co, Old Baldy at 4002'.

Yesterday by 2:00 it was 88º and only 9% humidity but I closed the house up
early and had only one ceiling fan on and it was so cool inside I had to put on
a sweatshirt! Then by 3 it was 92º and I turned on the AC!

Joe and the family dog, Prince, a Sheltie (Shetland Sheepdog) .... a good
one for Throw Back Thursday.. about 1959:

Joe Jr. is an Emergency Specialist. With a tall dad, Joe was 6'6", tall
mom, Betty is 5'11", and two 6' sisters ... Nancy and MaryAnn, Joe Jr was bound
to be tall. He topped at 6'7". How they wanted him to play basketball at UCLA,
but he had his sights set on being a doctor!

And today would have been my sister Marion and her husband
Bill's 61st wedding anniversary. Don't know much about my bro-in-law anymore.
He's somewhere in Az, I think. Don't care. He treated my sis horrible for so
long!

After reading and researching the benefits of magnesium Dr. Axe sent me
this. I get his emails generally once a week. I have been taking magnesium
regularly ever since. It curtails so many things that go wrong..i.e.;
constipation, energy, blood pressure, blood sugar, fatigue, osteoporosis,
tension & headaches, hormone imbalance and PMS...

Magnesium-rich foods are essential for cellular health and over 300
biochemical functions in the body. Unfortunately, around 80 percent of
American's may have a magnesium deficiency, and the majority of them don't even
know it...

Yesterday I got a head start on fresh spinach day. First I cooked some
mini-spaghetti and re-hydrated some chopped asparagus.

Then mixed up some veggies and broccoli slaw.

Added olive oil to a pan, added in sliced mushrooms and sauteéd them a bit
and added in the veggies, including the asparagus. A little Lawry's Garlic Salt
and a little water and steamed/sauteéd a while.

I had some soft light blue cheese....

So I added in the cooked drained mini spaghetti and the cheese...

Let it heat well and the cheese melt, stirring good. Then I added in two
cans of drained salmon, stirring well.

Then stirred in the fresh spinach. Taaaa daaaa....

REALLY GOOD!!! (Guess what's for breakfast too!)

All I know. Nuff said. Happy TBT. Ciao.

Fresh Spinach Day

Fresh Spinach Day is our opportunity to put healthier food into our
diets.

Popeye the Sailor is right. Spinach is one of the healthiest foods you can
eat. It tastes good, and there are many recipes. Many people turn up their nose
to it, without even trying it.

The reason for eating fresh spinach, is the nutritional value is highest,
when it is fresh and uncooked.

Celebrate this day by introducing some fresh spinach to your meals today.
You could start by mixing in some spinach into your garden salad. Your family
may not even notice, but by doing so, you are making them healthier!

Gardeners know that spinach is easy to grow. And, it's hardy. You can plant
it as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring. Why, that's today in many
parts of the country! More on Growing
Spinach.

There is another day that we celebrate this healthy vegetable. It's National
Spinach Day, celebrated on March 26th. We think it is great that there are
two days to celebrate this wonderful vegetable, and to encourage people to eat
healthier.

Did You Know? V-8 Vegetable
Juice is not just tomato juice. It includes 8 vegetables. One of them is
Spinach

You have such a yummy blog. Interesting list on what not to eat. I don't worry about GMO nearly so much as I do starvation- which much more of the world would do if it weren't for speeding up the evolutionary curve in horticulture- which is basically all GMO stands for. For those who are concerned with GMO- none of the seeds sold to consumers use GMO- it is too expensive for all but large commercial agriculture.

Oh good! At least there's something in my frig that's healthy V8 Juice! :) I was sad to see so many of the things I use and eat on that no no list! Microwave popcorn? Oh no!! Tilapia? Our fave kind of fish! Milk! Yikes

Love Michael Flatley! I have seen his production of Lord of the Dance and have the video. Love Irish dance!
